Giving Back

This picture above, is of my grandma, 90, and I holding hands. She is the matriarch of our family and when she speaks, we listen. Two codes of many wonderful codes that she and my papa live by are (1) truth is friendly, and (2) never give up on people. If you have been lucky enough to have your life touched by these two beams of light, then you just know how deep that runs. The happiest I’ve ever seen them is when they are witness to human kindness and they continue to inspire me.

Our family has experienced untimely heartache and loss. It is on all of our behalf, when I announce the give-back nature of Head Regal. In honor of my brother Gregg, who died at 19 years old 10 years ago after a rogue wave knocked him into violent waters off of the coast of Hilo, Hawaii – A percentage of every credit card transaction will go to the charity of our choice, each quarter.

Last Chance Corral

Please support born to die, a documentary in-the-making by my dear friend and mentor ,Sue Morrow, in support of these nurse mare foals and the last chance corral. It is truly remarkable work.

“This documentary will reveal the cruel secret that some in the various equine breeding industries don’t like to acknowledge or talk about: Every year during breeding season, hours-old, non-pedigreed foals are taken from their mothers, whose job is to be a nurse mare to a pedigree foal.

This cycle continues, over and over. The foals with championship potential are nourished by nurse mare’s milk critical to the health and survival of a baby horse. But what happens to the non-pedigreed and discarded foals? Many are left to die. But since 1991, about 150 foals every year have been lucky enough to be rescued by the Last Chance Corral in Athens, Ohio during foaling season every January through June.”
